[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was asked about the prayer garment during the Battle of Tabuk, and he said it is like the back of a saddle.  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ عَنْ سُتْرَةِ الْمُصَلِّي فَقَالَ مِثْلُ مُؤَخِّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ  

[Machine] "On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: 'If one of you places something equal to the height of the saddle in front of him, it does not harm him who passes behind it.' And in the narration of Abu Abdullah, 'Let him pray and not be concerned about whoever passes behind it.'"  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا وَضَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِثْلَ مُؤَخِّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ فَلَا يَضُرُّهُ مَنْ مَرَّ وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ وَفِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ فَلْيُصَلِّ وَلَا يُبَالِي مَنْ يَمُرُّ وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] We were praying and the animals were passing in front of us, so we mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, "The rear end of the saddle should be in front of one of you, and what passes in front of him will not harm him."  

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي وَالدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مِثْلُ مُؤَخِّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ يَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَحَدِكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ  

The back of the saddle is (about) one cubit (in height) or more than that. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 686)   

مُؤَخِّرَةُ الرَّحْلِ ذِرَاعٌ فَمَا فَوْقَهُ  

[Machine] "Qatada was an arm's length and a span."  

عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ذِرَاعٌ وَشِبْرٌ  

"The Prophet ﷺ used to make his she-camel sit across and he would pray facing it (as a Sutra)." I asked, "What would the Prophet ﷺ do if the she-camel was provoked and moved?" He said, "He would take its camel-saddle and put it in front of him and pray facing its back part (as a Sutra). And Ibn ʿUmar used to do the same." (This indicates that one should not pray except behind a Sutra). (Using translation from Bukhārī 507)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُعَرِّضُ رَاحِلَتَهُ فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا قُلْتُ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِذَا ذَهَبَتِ الرِّكَابُ؟ قَالَ كَانَ يَأْخُذُ الرَّحْلَ فَيُعَدِّلُهُ فَيُصَلِّي إِلَى آخِرَتِهِ أَوْ قَالَ مُؤَخَّرَتِهِ  

[Machine] He used to pray towards his camel while it was positioned between him and the Qibla. And his saying, "Did you see from the statement of Ubaidullah to Nafi', 3461 Abu Amr Al-Adibi informed us that Abu Bakr Al-Isma'ili informed us that Yusuf bin Ya'qub Al-Hammadi mentioned the narration similar to the narration of Al-Muqri'. Sheikh Abu Bakr said it is likely that his saying, "Did you see from the words of Ubaidullah to Nafi'" is not from the words of Nafi' to Abdullah, and that is because Ibrahim bin Musa and Al-Qasim bin Zakariya informed me, they said Khalad bin Aslam narrated to us, he said Ubaidah bin Humaid narrated from Ubaidullah from Nafi' from Ibn Umar who said: The Messenger of Allah used to pray and position the camel's backside between him and the Qibla. Al-Qasim said in his narration: Ubaidullah said to me, I asked Nafi': What should one do if the camels go? He said: He used to position the backside of the saddlebag between him and the Qibla.  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي إِلَى بَعِيرِهِ وَهُوَ مُعْتَرِضٌ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ وَقَوْلُهُ أَفَرَأَيْتَ مِنْ قَوْلِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ لِنَافِعٍ 3461 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَدِيبُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ أنبأ يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْحَمَّادِيُّ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ الْمُقْرِئِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يُشْبِهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَوْلُهُ أَفَرَأَيْتَ مِنْ كَلَامِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ لِنَافِعٍ لَا مِنْ كَلَامِ نَافِعٍ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ مُوسَى وَالْقَاسِمَ بْنَ زَكَرِيَّا أَخْبَرَانِي قَالَا ثنا خَلَّادُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ ثنا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَيُعَرِّضُ الْبَعِيرَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ قَالَ الْقَاسِمُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ سَأَلْتُ نَافِعًا إِذَا ذَهَبَتِ الْإِبِلُ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ؟ قَالَ كَانَ يُعَرِّضُ مُؤَخِّرَةَ الرَّحْلِ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command the warriors when he went out on the day of Eid, and it would be placed in front of him, and he would pray towards it with the people behind him. And he used to do this during travels, so the rulers thereafter adopted it.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ أَمَرَ بِالْحَرْبَةِ فَتُوضَعُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا وَالنَّاسُ وَرَاءَهُ وَكَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السَّفَرِ فَمِنْ ثَمَّ اتَّخَذَهَا الْأُمَرَاءُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in Al-Abtah. Bilal came to him and called the adhan (call to prayer). The Prophet then called for water to perform ablution and he performed ablution. The people started coming to the Messenger of Allah to touch his ablution water and wipe themselves with it. Then Bilal brought a goat and walked with it alongside the Messenger of Allah. He (the Prophet) then established the prayer and performed two raka'at (units of prayer). And women, donkeys, and camels passed between his hands.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِالْأَبْطَحِ قَالَ فَجَاءَهُ بِلَالٌ فَآذَنَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَالَ فَدَعَا بِوَضُوءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَأْتُونَ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَيَتَمَسَّحُونَ بِهِ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِلَالٌ الْعَنَزَةَ فَمَشَى بِهَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ وَرَكَزَهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَالَ وَالظَّعْنُ يَمُرُّونَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ الْمَرْأَةُ وَالْحِمَارُ وَالْبَعِيرُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said for one of you to conceal his prayer, even if it is with an arrow.  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِيَسْتُرْ أَحَدُكُمْ صَلَاتَهُ وَلَوْ بِسَهْمٍ  

[Machine] "On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said: 'Cover yourselves in your prayers, even if it is with an arrow.'"  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ اسْتَتِرُوا فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ وَلَوْ بِسَهْمٍ
